Why a body cannot be in equilibrium due to a single force acting on it?

Difficulty: Easy

No, with only a single force present, the body will accelerate infinitely in the direction of the force.

Because the force that is alone applied will have, some direction, and the object will try to move in this direction under its influence. However, if two opposite and equal forces take part it gives rise to a null vector force. The body can be in rotational equilibrium under the impact of a single force.
